MDOT Co-Op Program

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) offers an opportunity for students from historically black colleges and universities who have completed their first, second, or third year of college to do a paid summer co-op with them. The program helps students understand whether civil engineering is a match for them and they gain exposure to the University of Michigan’s College of Engineering.

Housing is available on and/or near the university campus. Students commute to Brighton, MI, a 30-minute drive from the university’s campus.
